I'm sure I've mentioned this in another thread, but just to reiterate. The big challenge of layer_shell client side is hooking into Qt. - We need to not have another role (XdgShell) assigned. I think this is doable with setting the BypassWindowCompositor flag, but we need to check. - We need to attach the buffer only after we've had our shell configured (and I'm not sure there's a public hook for this) - For the panel case we need the dialogs and tooltips to be XdgPopups parented to the LayerShell..which is going to be super hard. Doing the kwin side is still valid as we can support 3rd party clients. David
